Truck with chains

[boneaddict]

Is there a new truck that you can run chains with.  Half ton class? 

Nothing has disappointed me more about my F150 than that . Other than that I have been super happy with my truck.

Not quite a half ton but I know you can on a Toyota Tacoma.

I’ve been researching the same question and haven’t found it.  In some cases you can run low clearance chains on the front. Having the ability to run chains on all four is more important than a fancy on board computer that tells me when I’m stuck.  I really hope the new bronco will accept chains.

I wonder if a Tundra would.

No kidding right?

I bolt  1.25” spacers on my 1500 Ram every fall so I can chain all 4.   Could also have extra set of winter rims with offset to allow chains.

Where do you get the spacers?

Just search wheel spacers for your rig. Amazon, Jegs, Ebay, JC whitney. About any parts place will have them.

I have a 2019 pwerstroke f350 stock withe 285 tires and all 4 tires chained no prob. I also have a 2018 1500 and run same tires but rubbed in front so put a 2 inch leveling kit in front and now no prob. Plus level looks better

Thank you for the link.

Go with a name brand hub-centric spacer - this is not an area to skimp on quality.
Use blue loctite on spacer nuts.   Measure your studs - get a spacer at least that thick or you will have to trim each bolt.

I have a 2014 F150 4x4. I have heavy duty chains for the rear and did some internet recon and purchased S series chains for the front. Dry fitted them at home and there's clearance. We were heading to third season Colorado and there was no way I was going to hunt at 9000' without chains for all four corners.

Ended up needing them on the front to regain steering and braking coming off the mountain with black ice under the fresh snow. That was fun putting them on in the dark with the truck cross ways in the trail facing downhill. No way were we getting off that mountain without those chains.

Could you provide a link for those S series chains?
